What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build inclusive educational systems through curriculum design, educator capacity-building, assessment, and social-emotional learning, in collaboration with schools, nonprofits, and government partners.

I lead inclusive education training and curriculum work with Jai Vakeel Foundation, including NIEPID DISHA Curriculum capacity-building for special educators, coordinators, and institutional teams. I also review digital learning content for persons with intellectual disabilities through the Divyang SARTHI project with MeitY and MANUU.

At Inventure Academy, I managed Wider World programs connecting students to industry, community outreach, service-learning, and partner schools. I later supported values-based SEL curriculum and experiential community engagement across primary and middle schools.

My work combines psychology, curriculum design, assessment, educator development, and community partnership. I've supported schools, nonprofits, government partners, families, and multidisciplinary teams to create accessible learning environments for children and adolescents.
